What time is it? Now. The perfect time.

Our lives are so monotonous, so still. Time just passes by for us and we never care. Every single day is just like the previous one. All we care about is how to make good bucks and how to stay ahead in the race all the time. We never have time to do what we want to do. Study science because everyone says so, do Engineering because they all say it's cool, join IT because they say here is all the money in the world.

When was the last time you took a decision that was completely your own and you stood by it?

If you are prompted to look into discreet history for an answer, I tell you, you are doing it all wrong. You and I are on the same track and that track, my friend, is not the best one to ride on. Our lives deserve a better treatment from us.

Now is the time to live your life. If you are my age, you have well settled parents, you are not married and you have some steady cash flow, now is the perfect time to live your life. Go out. Do a course you always wanted to do, learn guitar, play basketball, visit Goa. If you don't do it now, you will never have a second best time. Ever.

On working remote

The last company I worked for, did have an office space, but the code was all on Github, infra on AWS, we tracked issues over Asana and more or less each person had at least one project they could call "their own" (I had a bunch of them ;-)). This worked pretty well. And it gave me a feeling that working remote would not be very different from this. So when we started working on our own startup, we started with working from our homes. It looked great at first. I could now spend more time with Mom and could work at leisure. However, it is not as good as it looks like. At times it just feels you are busy without business, that you had been working, yet didn't achieve much. If you are evaluating working from home and are not sure of how to start, or you already do (then please review and add your views in comments) and feel like you were better off in the office, do read on. Remote work is great. But a physical office is better. So if you can, find yourself a co-working s

Capture and compare stdout in python unit tests

A recent fan of TDD, I set out to write tests for whatever comes my way. And there was one feature where the code would print messages to the console. Now - I had tests written for the API but I could not get my head around ways to capture these messages in my unittests. After some searching and some stroke of genius, here's how I accomplished capturing stdout.

15 minutes of courage

"I Quit" , said she and walked out as briskly as she could, her face as stern as a stone. She didn't look back. I wanted her to. I felt helpless, somewhat creepy, and a sudden chill went down my spine. I didn't know what to do. I wanted to just run away. Run away from her. Run away from this world. Run away to some distant place where I could be myself. Some place where I could cry to my heart's content. But I was not one of those who would leave the ground, wounded! I had always been the one who took life head on. So was it the time to lean back and contemplate what actually went wrong? No. That won't be the man, the world knew! So.. was it the time to build a castle around my feelings and play cold? ~ Prince Mishra
